Attorney Shot To Death

October 18, 1985

MONTREAL — ''I and my colleagues have just assassinated Frank Shoofey,'' the caller said. ''Good riddance.'' Shoofey, 44, an attorney who was involved in some of Montreal's most widely publicized criminal cases, was shot three times. His body was found face down in front of the elevators outside his office. Police said they searched the downtown building but found no suspects. The caller who claimed responsibility for the shooting told the Montreal Gazette that he was a member of the Red Army Liberation Front. Police said they took a call from a woman informing them that a man had been shot in Shoofey's office.
